About Me

Howdy, my fellow health gurus! I’m a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner investigating root causes of malfunction in the body,with a focus on gut health.

My journey of holistic self-healing began when I decided to take control of my own health; I was tired of being sick and tired. As achild, when I was sick, I relied on an allopathic approach tomedicine, known as traditional medicine, full of antibiotics and surgery.

  • How do you wake up in the morning? 😴☀️ A) bursting with energy B) slow and steady C) tired AF . Comment below 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 . How you wake up is a sign of what’s going on with your hormones. There have been times where it was difficult for me to get out of bed. I would stumble to the coffee machine and down coffee. Caffeine was needed to function. Truth is my adrenals were shot! Now that my adrenals are in check, I can opt for coffee or this matcha green tea. I enjoy the taste, and the boost of antioxidants from drinking coffee and green tea! If you’re a coffee or green tea fan, keep the number of cups to a minimum as this can cause a spike in cortisol levels (aka stress hormone). Cheers ☕️✌🏼❤️✨ . . . #antioxidant #matchagreentea #coffeetime☕️ #healthybeverage

  • Wait..what?! So let me get this right...you are sick and tired of being sick and tired?! Amen sister!!! 💆🏻‍♀️ . Am I speaking your language? Are you dealing with one or more symptoms like digestive issues...acne...headaches...joint aches and pains...fatigue...foggy thinking...weight gain..you name it! 😩 . Symptoms are signals showing you there is an imbalance within your system! ⚖️ . As hard as it may be, try shifting your mindset to be grateful for the clues your intellect body is giving you! Then, find out the WHY! Focus on the root cause instead of slapping on a band-aid and ignoring your body signals! 💡🧐 . Traditional meditation is educated on medicating and using quick fix approaches...(pharmaceuticals drugs), but is that really “fixing” the imbalance?! Heck no! Temporarily you may feel better, but choosing this approach only complicates the system resulting in more symptoms, and more dis-ease in the body! 🙉 . If you’re feeling fired up and a sense of hope then take action NOW! 👊🏻👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 . 1️⃣TAG a friend who needs to see this! 2️⃣Visit www.forgivingbelly.com (link in bio) to see if you are imbalanced by taking the quiz! Or 3️⃣If you’re at your wits end & ready to start the investigation now schedule a breakthrough call with me! Visit www.forgivingbelly.com and schedule asap 🙌🏻 . 👋🏼You deserve to live your best life!

  • Walks in nature are one of my favorite self-care practices. I’ve been going on walks for 6 years now, and it still surprises me how this type of movement automatically lifts my mood, energy, and overall vibration! Yesterday on my walk, I was in awe of all the colors I was surrounded by. This teal log is one example. 🌈🤩 • When you are present in nature you truly see the beauty it has to offer. To me this is so invigorating and relaxing! Walking takes your mind on a little vacation into the present moment and out of your mind. This is what we should strive for every day! We need it to reduce stress! 🙌🏻💯💆🏻‍♀️ • Here’s to unwinding the mind, being in nature, and adding in intentional self-care practice daily! ✌🏼❤️✨ • I challenge you to go on a walk today..without distractions. Just be in nature. Comment below what you noticed on your walk! I’d love to here from you! ✌🏼❤️✨#walksinnature #selfcarelove #natureheals #bepresentinthemoment #beintentional #vibrantcolors
  • Are you a good listener? This is something I am being more intentional about. To me listening can be thought of in 2 ways: 👂🏼👂🏼 1. Within yourself - listening to your body and mind. Start with doing a body scan from head to toe-Where are you holding tension? Are you run down, or full of energy? From experience, I can easily get run down when I’m in the “need to please” mode. This is saying YES to everything, and not truly listening to my mind, body, & soul. It’s ok to say NO. It’s empowering, and it’s listening to your needs. 🙉👂🏼 • 2. Being a good listener to others looks like being present with them. Asking them what they want from you...if they want advice, your opinion, or just a friend to listen. For me, it can be challenging to stop my thoughts and forming my next comment when I’m listening, but is that truly listening? Or hearing what the person is saying. I’ve been guilty of trying to make the other person feel better by showing empathy. Be aware of how you can become a better listener will be rewarding to you and all in your presence! ✌🏼❤️✨ • Who’s with me on becoming a better listener? Comment below! 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

  • Ever tried ZOODLES?! ZOODLES are a healthier option replacing noodles. Don’t have a spirializer?...buy them prepackaged. • This dish combined with coconut baked chicken & onions + nut pesto smothered over the ZOODLES was finger licking good. 🤤 • Swipe left to see the ingredients in the nut pesto. • How was the one pot chicken made? By using what I had...I had 1 to many cans of coconut milk so decided to throw it in! 1️⃣place Whole chicken in pot with full fat coconut milk + bone broth 2️⃣drizzle avocado oil + lime on chicken + seasoning of your choice...I used—> (salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, curry powder) 3️⃣bake 400 for 1 -1.5 hours (depending on pan used and oven) 4️⃣serve with other veggies or the zoodles & pesto. Enjoy 😉
